Details:
By comparing the two solar images taken 24 hours apart, clear changes in the size and position of the sunspots can be observed. Due to the Sun’s rotation, the sunspot groups have shifted slightly toward the right (the western limb of the solar disk). This is especially evident in the large and complex group (AR 4197) located near the lower central region, which has moved closer to the limb compared to the first image. Similarly, the sunspot (AR 4191) on the right side of the disk has also advanced further toward the edge. In terms of size and evolution, the large cluster (AR 4197) has shown significant growth and increased complexity, appearing more extended and fragmented than on the previous day. The smaller groups, such as (AR 4199) and (AR 4202), remain visible but display minor changes in shape and spot distribution. On the left side of the disk (AR 4205 and AR 4206), further development can be seen, with new dark spots becoming more pronounced. Overall, the comparison between the two images reveals both the drift caused by solar rotation and the rapid dynamic evolution of sunspots, where some regions can grow and become more complex within only 24 hours.
